The Nurse Has Been Caring for a Child in the Home

The nurse has been caring for a child in the home who has a tracheostomy and is oxygen dependent. The nurse wants to do the care in the morning due to the geographic location of the seven children in the caseload. The family requests the care be done after lunch because it fits their schedule better. Select the best response by the nurse.

A) "I'm sorry. It is impossible for me to do this in the afternoon. I wish I could, but I cannot."
B) "If I give the care in the afternoon, it means that six other children's schedules have to be rearranged and that is not fair to them."
C) "Let's look at what time is in the child's best interest and then at what you and I can change to better accommodate that."
D) "I will see if the home health agency can find another nurse who can meet your preferred schedule."
